Our Story
Keeping the Spirit of Disco Alive Since 1977
Founded in the heart of the disco era, Alex Banks Disco College has been teaching the art of dance and the joy of music for nearly five decades.
What started as a small dance studio above a record shop has grown into the premier institution for retro dance education. Our philosophy is simple: everyone has rhythm, they just need to find it.
Our instructors are veterans of the golden age, many having danced at Studio 54 and toured with legendary funk and soul artists.
